China’s Stocks Swell on Production Revisions

Last month, China’s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) released revised area, yield, and production estimates for corn, wheat, and rice from 2007/08 through 2017/18. This month’s Supply and Demand balance sheets for China incorporate the NBS revisions. Details can be found on the USDA World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates Historical Revisions page. Corn: The NBS revision adds a cumulative 266 million tons to production for the 2007/08-2017/18 period. While just over a half of the additional volume is added to stocks, total domestic consumption is adjusted to reflect greater use for feed and residual disappearance and fuel ethanol. The level of stocks rises sharply starting in 2013/14 reflecting government support programs at the time. Despite large stocks, any potential boost to exports should be minimal as China’s corn is currently more expensive compared to world levels. Imports remain unchanged. Wheat: The NBS revision adds a cumulative 20 million tons to production for the 2007/08-2017/18 period. Most of the increase is added to stocks, with only a small addition to feed and residual use. Revisions were not made to food, seed, and industrial use as per-capita consumption appears to be relatively stable. China’s stocks are forecast to account for over half of global wheat stocks but are generally not accessible to world markets. Rice: The NBS revision adds a cumulative 18 million tons to production for the 2007/08-2017/18 period. Most of the increase is added to stocks as rice is primarily used for food and per-capita consumption appears to have remained relatively stable. China’s stocks are forecast to account for more than two-thirds of global stocks, which are now at a record. Despite lower rice and wheat production in 2018/19, stocks are still forecast to climb, though at a slower expected rate. Auctions of both rice and wheat stocks have resulted in limited sales from state reserves in contrast to the rapid pace of sales from corn stocks.

WHEAT

WHEAT PRICES

Domestic: In general, wheat prices have been relatively flat over the last few months, pressured by a weak pace of export sales. For October, prices were mostly up from the previous month based on tightening competitor supplies. Soft White Winter (SWW) gained $6/ton to $237, supported by the continuing drought in Australia. Hard Red Spring (HRS) jumped $8/ton to $257 on an uptick in sales. Soft Red Winter (SRW) rose $1/ton to $213. On the other hand, Hard Red Winter (HRW) was down $3/ton to $235 with continued weakness in international demand.

Source: IGC

OVERVIEW FOR 2018/19 Global wheat production is up this month mainly due to a larger crop in China, while crops were reduced for Australia, Morocco, Pakistan, and Ukraine. Trade is down slightly this month mainly on lower import demand for Bangladesh, China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. Exports are lowered for Australia as drought continues. The U.S. season-average farm price is unchanged at $5.10 per bushel.

MARKET FEATURES

North America Dominates Global Durum Exports Durum wheat is commonly used for food products such as pasta and couscous. Canada is by far the world’s leading exporter of durum. In 2017/18, Canada exported more than 4.0 million tons of durum, with the majority of those shipments destined for Algeria, the United States, and Morocco. Exports to Italy, formerly Canada’s largest market, have fallen substantially in light of Italy’s 2017 country of origin labelling rule. Mexico, a distant second in global durum exports, shipped mostly to Venezuela and Algeria in 2017/18 as shipments to Turkey and Italy dropped off substantially from previous years. This wheat lacks the higher quality factors of Canadian supplies and is generally less preferred for quality-focused pasta markets. Mexican durum is popular in Algeria for making couscous but is still only the second-leading supplier to that market, behind Canada. The European Union is the top producer of durum wheat but remains a net importer due to strong internal demand. France and Spain export durum, mainly to other EU countries and North Africa. Italy is the primary durum importer in the region based on strong historic demand for pasta as well as exports of pasta products. In recent years, Italy’s slowing imports from North America have been partly offset by larger purchases from France, Kazakhstan, and Russia. U.S. Durum Prices Down with Rebound in Crop Based on better growing conditions this season, U.S. durum production is up 41 percent from last year’s drought affected crop. The monthly farm-level price for durum is down significantly from last year and exports are projected up more than 70 percent. Most U.S. exports go to Algeria and Italy, competing with Canada. However, U.S. production is still insufficient to meet domestic use, so the United States is expected to continue as a net importer of durum with nearly all of its imports coming from Canada.

RICE

RICE PRICES

Global: Export quotes from the Western Hemisphere remain elevated compared to those from Asian suppliers. U.S. quotes, while lower from earlier in the year, remain the highest although stable at $550/ton as harvest pressure from new crop supplies is offset by recent sales to Iraq. Meanwhile, Uruguay quotes are steady at $520/ton. Over the past month, Thai quotes slid lower to $392/ton as it vies for business with the recent Philippines tenders. In contrast, Vietnamese quotes have risen to $415/ton. Indian and Pakistani quotes have declined further to $365/ton and $360/ton, respectively, as the recent kharif crop is met with muted off-shore demand. This is the lowest Indian quote in more than a year and a half, and the lowest Pakistani quote in almost 2 years.

MARKET FEATURE

Bangladesh Imports Decline on Larger Crop

Rice production in Bangladesh has been revised higher this month on larger crops for the recently completed aus and current aman seasons. Total 2018/19 production is now forecast up nearly 2 million tons compared to the prior year. As noted in the June 2018 Grain World Markets and Trade Report, the government reinstated a higher import duty at that time in light of higher domestic production. The import pace has proven to be lackluster since then, resulting in a sharply lower estimate this month of 600,000 tons for 2019 imports.

COARSE GRAINS

CORN PRICES

Global: Corn prices, overall, have changed little since the previous WASDE. Argentina bids were up $3/ton to $162, while Brazil bids were lower $3/ton at $168. Black Sea bids fell $10/ton to $165, despite strong European Union demand, reflecting ample new-crop supplies in the region. U.S. bids bounced back to $165, the same as a month ago, reflecting strong global demand. Prices of all major suppliers have virtually converged, indicating strong competition.

OVERVIEW FOR 2018/19 Global corn production is up sharply this month mainly due to historical revisions for China. Aside from China, gains for Ukraine and Argentina more than offset reductions for the European Union and the United States. Global trade is up with greater imports for the EU, Iran, and Vietnam. Exports for Ukraine are expected at a record. The U.S. season-average farm price is raised 10 cents to $3.60 per bushel, reflecting stronger global demand, observed prices to date, and smaller stocks.

MARKET FEATURE

Black Sea Corn Supplies Add to Global Competition

*Surplus is defined as the difference between Production and Domestic Consumption. (Surplus = Production – Domestic Consumption) Corn production in the Black Sea region (Ukraine and Russia) is projected to rebound to a record 44.8 million metric tons in 2018/19. With rising acreage and improving yields, the Black Sea region is increasing its footprint as one of the key global suppliers of corn. Despite increased production, however, domestic use is still lagging. Limited growth in the domestic livestock sectors, due to disease issues and economic uncertainty, has capped livestock and poultry feed use. Food, seed, and industrial use is stagnant, and storage capacity is neither abundant nor economic. As a result, exports from the Black Sea are projected to rise in 2018/19. The Black Sea region has historically supplied the European Union market, as well as emerging economies in North Africa and the Middle East. Both Ukraine and Russia have been able to supply these key markets based on proximity to markets, small cargo sizes, shorter shipping times, and competitive pricing. As part of economic partnerships, China has been a steady destination for Ukraine corn. With abundant supplies in key exporters, competition has become increasingly fierce in the grains market. Black Sea suppliers compete indirectly with U.S. exports, driven by export-oriented commodity sectors, tepid domestic demand, bio-tech free corn, and lower prices. Currency volatility in Brazil and export policy changes hindering Argentina will help further solidify the Black Sea as a key supplier during 2018/19.

China: Strong Demand for Corn Supports Prices

Source: China National Grain and Oils Information Center Various trade sources have noted that China has sold around 100 million tons of corn from the reserves via auctions through the end of October 2018. The volume represents nearly 40 percent of forecast domestic consumption for 2017/18. Despite that huge volume coming onto the market, prices in the key consuming and producing regions have remained elevated even at harvest time, reflecting strong demand for corn. Domestic prices moved up earlier this year likely supported by various factors, such as greater use of corn feeding due to competitive prices relative to soybean meal and the rush to expand fuel ethanol production in response to the blending target of 10 percent (E10) nationwide by 2020. In addition, the government announced in February the investigation of anti-dumping and countervailing duties on imported sorghum from the United States (The investigation was dropped when punitive duties were removed in May). Convergence of these developments may have contributed to the run-up in prices in anticipation of greater demand for corn. Prices eased in the spring, but bi-weekly auctions have continued, steadily adding a large amount of corn -- comparable to Brazil’s entire corn crop -- to the market. Regardless, the level of prices has remained higher than a year ago and even strengthened in recent months. Demand for corn in China is expected to remain strong supported by greater industrial use and limited supplies for alternative feedstuffs that depend on imports, mainly sorghum and distillers’ dried grains. The recent announcement by a feed association advising a lower inclusion of protein in feed rations as well as rising prices for soybean meal could further boost demand for corn.

OTHER NOTES Local Marketing Years (LMY): LMY refers to the 12-month period at the onset of the main harvest, when the crop is marketed (i.e., consumed, traded, or stored). The year first listed begins a country's LMY for that commodity (2016/17 starts in 2016); except for summer grains in certain Southern Hemisphere countries and for rice in selected countries, where the second year begins the LMY (2016/17 starts in 2017). Key exporter LMY’s are:

For a complete list of local marketing years, please see the FAS website http://www.fas.usda.gov/psdonline/psdAvailability.aspx Stocks: Unless otherwise stated, stock data are based on an aggregate of differing local marketing years and should not be construed as representing world stock levels at a fixed point in time. Consumption: World totals for consumption reflect total utilization, including food, seed, industrial, feed, and waste; as well as differences in local marketing year imports and local marketing year exports. Consumption statistics for regions and individual countries, however, reflect food, seed, industrial, feed, and waste only. Trade: All PSD tables are balanced on the different local marketing years. All trade tables contain Trade Year (TY) data which puts all countries on a uniform, 12-month period for analytical comparisons: wheat is July/June; coarse grains, corn, barley, sorghum, oats, and rye are Oct/Sept; and rice is calendar year. EU Consolidation: The trade figures starting from 1999/00 represent the European Union (Croatia plus the former EU-27) and exclude all intra-trade. For the years 1960/61 through 1998/99, figures are the EU-15 and also exclude all intra-trade. EU-15 member states' data for grains are no longer maintained in the official USDA database. Data for the individual NMS-10, plus Bulgaria, Romania, and Croatia, exists only prior to 1999/00. Statistics: (1) Wheat trade statistics include wheat, flour, and selected pasta products on a grain equivalent basis. (2) Rice trade statistics include rough, brown, milled, and broken on a milled equivalent basis. (3) Coarse grains statistics include corn, barley, sorghum, oats, rye, millet, and mixed grains but exclude trade in barley malt, millet, and mixed grains. Unaccounted: This term includes grain in transit, reporting discrepancies in some countries, and trade to countries outside the USDA database.
